## Abstract (arXiv)

Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) cooperative perception enhances autonomous driving by enabling vehicles to share information beyond their direct line of sight. However, existing V2V datasets are limited by a small number of participating agents, static collaborator selection strategies, and a significant domain gap between simulated and real-world environments. To overcome these challenges, we introduce SV2V-RSim, a large-scale, multi-modal, near-realistic simulation dataset engineered to elevate agent diversity and realism. Additionally, we present the Select Vehicles Adaptively (SVA) module, which optimizes collaborator selection to balance perception performance against communication bandwidth constraints. Our dataset is generated using the Unreal Engine 5-based simulator that integrates high-fidelity 3D assets, diverse environments, and intricate traffic scenarios. All vehicles within a specified range of the ego vehicle are equipped with sensor suites, enabling dynamic and adaptive collaborator selection. SV2V-RSim encompasses four maps, four weather conditions, six time periods from sunrise to night, 203K LiDAR frames, 402K RGB frames, and 788K annotated 3D bounding boxes across 17 object classes, supporting a range of cooperative perception tasks such as 3D object detection, segmentation, and depth estimation. Benchmarking on recent cooperative perception algorithms demonstrates that SVA achieves a superior performance-bandwidth trade-off, while sim-to-real experiments and No-Reference Image Quality Assessment validate the dataset's high realism and practical effectiveness. Our dataset and code will be publicly available.
